So you're going with the narrative that yes they cheated and it worked. They won a World Series from it. They got away with it. But instead of continuing to cheat they decided to stop out of the goodness in their hearts?
This season in no way helped the Astros argument but it's certainly not a slam dunk that they all had highly elevated numbers because of cheating. They did nothing to shut up their detractors but that doesn't mean they proved them right either, especially in this weird season. Anyone saying definitively either way is either a homer or hater. I'd certainly be a little concerned if I were an Astros fan but next season is the real test.
My son's scrimmage was canceled this week because it was supposed to have 6 teams there. They had a game scheduled for September 18 that's been canceled already because it was against a TAPPS school. Everything else is running on schedule so far.
My kid started practice yesterday. Starting at RB and LB/DE for his team this year. Probably doing kickoffs too. They have an easy schedule so might go undefeated on the year if they get to play.
Just recently got into cycling. Have been riding for about an hour twice during the week and 2 hours on Saturday. That will probably increase as time goes on but not dramatically in the near future. My wife wants to get me a couple of cycling jerseys for Father's Day. Is there much difference in the premium brands of jerseys that cost $150+ versus the brands around $60-80? Which brands do all of you recommend?
Well the shutdown didn't last long enough for me. Sounds like my sister in laws wedding in two weeks is not only still going to happen but at full capacity because the venue told her that they won't be following any restrictions.
Burkburnett had a tornado just west of town last night that luckily didn't do any real damage. Multiple hail storms came through. There was softball size hail all over town. Many instances of cantaloupe size hail all over town. The house in the news story above wasn't the only house that had a piece of hail go completely through the roof but that was all at houses that are already shitty. Researchers from multiple universities and even NASA have been around town this morning asking for any hail from the storm last night that was saved/frozen. Sounds and looks like we had a hail storm for the record books.
I've actually started running during all of this. Haven't ran in 10 years and am out of shape. I'm about a week in. Have been running 3 days off 1. 1 mile each day. Today was the first day I stretched that to 1.25 miles. Trying not to overdo it and hurt myself. Fastest mile time was yesterday at 9 minutes and 20 seconds.
I was thinking about signing up for a virtual 5k on April 25th to give me something to work for but I'm not sure I could go that far by then. I know it all pales in comparison to what you guys train for but it's a start for me.
There's a huge fucking difference in letting the women's coach contract run out and firing the men's coach right now. There is no way CDC was going to fire Shaka during all of this Covid 19 stuff. That's a $15-20 million bill that he would get crucified for right now by everyone other than die hard Longhorn basketball fans.
The NCAA canceled all remaining winter and spring sports. I guess it's possible that the Big 12 will break from that and resume playing but I highly doubt it.
